OK, so maybe the random junk hasn't let up yet. Two days of doing everything but what was planned. Today there was that fun little SSH thing, and then that stunt that verisign has pulled having fun with the email servers.
Jeff was at Bethel so we all went to Arby's for lunch, which was fun. That was a last minute change from C1, so today we all ended up going to C1 for lunch. I guess we started off the week pretty decent in that regard. House stuff is interesting, and we'll leave it at that for now. Last night I ended up helping brooke with her CS2 assignment. They're learning emacs and java in that class now - what are they trying to do, scare away all the people halfway interested in CS? Oh well, another person who is hooked on X forwarding for working on remote machines. :) Today I found out that the OS 9 macs like to sort home directories in random order when viewing on the file servers. At least that's a better explanation than stuff doesn't show up on macs but it does on PCs. I was starting to wonder even more about Microsoft's AFP implementation... Then I got the distributed profile stuff sorta worked out for students. Apparently even though it wanted to apply through groups earlier this summer, now it doesn't so I have to move them into different OUs. Oh well, no big deal I guess. I'm sure there's a way to automate it. The implementing screensavers is probably gonna be pushed back a bit until we announce it in the newsletter. We really want to do it, but given the couple complaints for the few people we've done already we probably need to make sure they know rather than kill the Help Desk. After work tonight I met the family at Davanni's where they were finishing up dinner to talk for a bit. There's an estate sale tomorrow at one of the houses we looked at this past weekend and it looks like there could be some good deals there on camera stuff. Had to go look up the contact info for that one again. Hopefully stuff will settle down this week soon though. I'm starting to miss my don't-worry-about-anything-in-the-evenings that I had for the past few months... :(
